Notes

🔀 Recipe Variations

🌶️ Make it spicy. Add a pinch of cayenne or chili flakes for a cozy little heat.

🍋 Brighten it up. Finish with lemon zest or a squeeze of lemon juice right after baking.

🧄 Go extra garlicky. Add more garlic powder or toss in a few crushed fresh garlic cloves.

🧅 Add another veggie friend. Red onion wedges or sliced bell peppers roast beautifully alongside and bring extra sweetness.

🫙 Storage & Make-Ahead

🧊 Storage:

Keep the roasted Brussels sprouts and carrots in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days. They reheat wonderfully in the oven or air fryer — just a few minutes to bring back the warmth and those little crispy edges.

⏳ Make-ahead tip:

You can chop the veggies and mix the seasonings in advance. Store everything separately in the fridge, then toss together and bake when you need a quick, cozy side.
